@PunkboyParadise I have a character named Meilin who's definitely inspired by Mei from Overwatch so I just really hope I can make her distinct enough that she's not so much of an expy that I get into trouble for plagiarism, if I ever start releasing OC stories.

Alright guys. I have been pondering about stuff, walking, food, but most importantly… Overwatch 2’s current balancing issues, so I thought of a idea to return the game back to its former glory! - Increase Winston’s health from 200 to 1200

@CordellAndreWi2 @ItsSomjuu Your only issue is the balancing. Give me one example of Overwatch ever once being balanced. You cannot because it and every other fps game int eh history of the world has been unbalanced. The game was not balanced in 6v6 that’s a laughable statement

The Switch isn't a strong console, no one is disputing this, but I can play Apex and Overwatch straight for hours before those games crash. Even if it needs to drop to 30fps and is set to medium or low graphics, I'd rather the game be in a stable state.

@Jay3OW The community from overwatch is just as toxic as mk11. You play a support Ppl scream "they aren't healing" Scoreboard says different And just because someone can heal.. does not make them a healer... You want to fix overwatch.. Start with yourselves first

@BlizzardCS I’m in Charlotte NC and I haven’t been able to get on overwatch 2 since yesterday. It’s been 24 hours and nothing. There’s no update, and no WiFi issue on my end. Why can’t I join and when is this going to be fixed? I thought it’d be done by now honestly

@ItsSomjuu Back when it was 6v6 I didn't know why I was hating overwatch but when the beta for 2 came out and I played it I realized what the problem was real fast. I could actually complete a full match without getting bored cuz I'm to busy shooting at shields.

@kuribohttv @Niandra_ The biggest gag is nobody ever said THAT in all the years of overwatch. My issue is people pick and choose. All these years it was only her healing and rez nerfed. Yet now everyone thinks her Dmg boost is so op. Just doesn’t add up. It’s been the same for ages why now?

W11 doesn't fix this. Chipset drivers don't fix this. Turning off CPPC and CPPC-PC does, but then games are just all over your cores and slow cores. It makes synthetic benchmarks look worse, but synth marks don't matter anyway. You can see/feel this in Overwatch and Warzone.

(@xjosuecastro) reported
@Tabithabrownx its simply because they removed the Find Group feature that was once in Overwatch. It completely destroys the social/meeting new friends aspect of the game which is why I don't play it as much now :( @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS Fix this 😭

@Nivsick @DUSKdev @GetGianni QC in game design is good, it's a good AFPS in a current era, tho the problem it's the same as Lawbreakers, it received an overwatch label when OW was in its prime, the saber engine didn't help it, it was heavy to gain all champions, so in the end I'd just hop in Quakeworld.

@kitsua_ this isn’t a bungie issue? i like calling out bungie on their ****, but this is pretty common in ALL multiplayer online games. Fortnite skins? $10-20 a piece. Overwatch skins? $20 a piece. d2 actually has one of the better micro transaction models because of bright dust.

@Lord_Negatron Yeah, I'm having issues, but from what it seems, the issue is with 40 series cards, I've seen others had no issues. I just kept it pushing & played some Overwatch.

Reinstalling windows in the hopes that this will keep overwatch from crashing my gpu. If this doesn’t work it’s likely a hardware issue :/

Playing Overwatch, OBS crashes twice. Playing animal crossing… 0 times. I think OBS is taking too much memory and I don’t know how to fix that. Anyway… we got some cute new villagers and the new island is lookin sweet. Just like the person we raided @ItsIanWatson <— go follow!
